Employee Free Parking Update

As part of the welcome back to campus employees will be provided free parking for the fall semester. Due to the varying methods of payment, the free parking will be implemented in the following ways.

  • Employees who purchased a parking permit and selected monthly payroll deduction as their payment method will not have any deductions from the beginning of September through the first paycheck in January 2022 (nine deductions totaling $60.75).
  • Part-time employees who purchased a fall semester only parking permit and selected a one-time lump sum deduction of $60.75 ($30.38 for evening only permits), normally taken in October, will not have a fall deduction.
  • Employees who purchased a parking permit using a credit card through the online parking portal will be issued a refund in the amount of $60.75 ($30.38 for evening only permits) to the credit card they used. The refund will be issued by mid-October.
  • Employees who purchased a parking permit using a credit card in the parking office or over the phone, cash, or check, will be issued a refund of $60.75 ($30.38 for evening only permits) on a future paycheck (tax free) during the month of October.
